Thinking V4 inputs? Hold your horses.

Midwestern nitrogen application to v4 soybeans sparked a +3.9% yield change but a 0 to 5% chance of ROI based on 45-75 bushels per acre and $9 beans. So save your money. Adding nitrogen to soybean does not pay.

Lactofen works on many broadleaf weeds and on white mold. But it does not enhance yield for Midwestern farmers. The Project measured a 0% probability of ROI when farmers used lactofen to defoliate soybeans and promote branching in Midwestern soybean fields.
